  • Hello Darlings! I LOVE our finished headboard and I had so much fun making it!! Mad Men has always been a favourite of mine and the Draper Household has so much decor inspiration! So of course, I had to make my very own 1950s/60s vintage style bedhead!
    I hope you all enjoy the video and I'll see you very soon!!
    Lots and lots of love,
    Sage Xx

    I love that you call it ‘bed head’! In the US, we refer to how messy our hair looks in the morning after sleeping as our ‘bed head’ but I see your video title has the term ‘head board’ which is the same here. You are so brave to make your own. Wonderful job! Thank you for sharing.

    Being a child of the 50s, many a time I made a bed that looked like the Mad Men bed. The bedspread was long enough to cover the two sleeping pillows, making the top look like a very long pillow. Wasn't until the late 60s that I noticed a tendency on some relatives' part to cover the bed with pillows of all kinds, which have nowhere to be when the bed is in use. To this day, I hate throw pillows and pillow shams...
    Anyway, your headboard is absolutely lovely. Thanks for sharing.

    @BuffytheRealSlayer Před 10 měsíci +3

    I have a headboard that had a faux leather inset. Sadly, the previous owner taped the price on it when they were selling it at their yardsale and the tape pulled off visable holes in the faux leather finish when it was removed. I tried using leather dye, but that didn't really work. So, I took the inset out (which was a chore and a half) and recovered it with a blanket. Once the inset was put back into the frame, it now looks like a really soft fabric inset.

    I so admire your confidence and ability and determination Sage! And I love how supportive and helpful James is. My hubby wouldn't be so patient lol. The headboard looks beautiful! One piece of advice I'd give you is to lay your pillows flat when you make the bed so the headboard isn't so covered up by them and is the centerpiece of the bed. It's too beautiful to be hidden behind pillows! And all your hard work deserves to shine. 😊

    It was not planned, as these beds tend to be more expensive, tho I was looking to replace my old bed.
    And there she was…. My kind of color, headboard and ON SALE!
    Honestly, headboards are so wonderful. Especially for people who enjoy reading in bed

    Love the new headboard. Excellent team project. I didn't own a comforter/duvet with pillow shams until 1992 (I was 29 years old). Prior to 1992, I used bedspreads, and the pillows were “tucked” under the bedspread. I still use a chenille bedspread on the bed that was my grandmother’s, and tuck my pillows 😊.

    It looks SO good! Im obsessed with anything mid century modern. If you ever have to make another one...make your life easier. Use peg board instead of plywood. The holes are already spaced out. You can also get buttons made especially for covering with fabric. Like the ones you see on clothes. Then use a long needle and thread through the front and tie off in the back. Using the holes as a guide. Pull tighter and the tuft is deeper. Can't wait to see another makeover of nans house!

    I want to make a headboard just like this. I have a camel back couch that I will put on my paper to trace the top shape. In the US we have pegboard that has evenly spaced holes that are intended for hooks to hang tools or pots/pans or whatever on. I’m planning on using pegboard for the backer board so I can skip your step of measuring for button placement.
    I loved watching you do this and you have me the courage to give it a try. I love watching your channel, I also love Dick Van Dyke.
